§ 1439.801 - Applicability.

This subpart sets forth the terms and conditions of the Livestock Indemnity Program. Benefits shall be provided to eligible livestock producers only in areas where a disaster occurred between October 1, 1996, and June 12, 1997 (inclusive), for which a Presidential Designation or Secretarial Declaration was requested for the disaster by June 12, 1997, and subsequently approved. Producers in counties that were not designated, but rather were contiguous to declared States and counties, are not eligible for benefits under this subpart. Benefits will be provided with respect to eligible livestock where the death occurred in the disaster areas between October 1, 1996, and June 12, 1997 (inclusive), and where the death of the livestock was reasonably related to the disaster which prompted the disaster declaration as determined by the Deputy Administrator or a designee. No payments will be made under this subpart unless the livestock losses were caused by the declared disaster and the disaster occurred between October 1, 1996, and June 12, 1997 (inclusive).
